Ao-sagi had been sitting still like a statue, not wanting to disturb the workers and customers, when Sayuri finally gave her a sign to move on. "You're done... the price of the kanazashi wil be deducted from the okiya account, so we can leave now." The head Geisha said quietly. Ao-sagi nodded and rose, bowed a good-bye to everyone and silently slipped out of the door after her onee-san.

Kyoku smiled at the gift. "How very generous of you, Kikaru is honored." Nudging Kikaru to bow with her, Kyoku smiled.

Kikaru's eyes widened as she studied the comb, it was beautiful. "Thank you very much." She bowed when her Onee-sama nudged her.

Nishiko grinned and bowed back, "You are very welcome young one! I hope to see one day soon with a younger sister of your own!"
The assistant giggled and walked to the back attend to the wax.

'So that is one hair piece for Kikaru and one for Iyasu.' She said marking it down in the book at the front of the salon.

Iyasu nodded to Kioku and smiled to her Onee-sama and her sibling in ritual. She left the store in hurried fashion to get to the okiya and her new younger sister, Yokome.

Kioku paced quietly around the salon. She was very dissapointed in her employees lately. She stirred the wax, and fixed a few things here and there. She went over to the hair ornament display and dusted them, being sure not to ruin any of them. She set down the rag and walked over and slid open the door and looked outside to see if her workers were out chatting. She turned her head to the left, then the right. But she saw no one.

Miharu re-entered the salon for the first time since she became a maid there. She spoke to the woman pacing around the salon asking,
"Excuse me, madam, I am a new maiko, and I would like to have my hair done for the first time."
At this Miharu stopped, and adverted her eyes, but quickly brought them up to the woman face, She opened her hand, which had been held shut when she walked in, inside there was a peach blossom hair ornament,
"Could you please put this in the design? It's from my Onee-sama."

Akasha came from the back room cleaning it out. She saw Miharu. She walked up to her and smiled.
"Long time no see Miharu-san. How are you and my neice Arikku doing?" she asked and smiled with a feather duster in her hand.
She noticed Yokome pacing around. "Are you okay?" she asked from in front of Miharu. She then turned her attention to both ladies.

Miharu turned and bowed to Akasha-san, speakign as she did so,
"It's lovely to see you, Akasha-san, Arikku-chan and I are wonderful, Makoto-sama has accepted us as younger sisters!"
Miharu peered around,
"I just came to get my hair done for the first time."

Akasha smiled and bowed back. "That is wonderful. It's great to see you and know that all of you are doing well." she said and smiled "I hope Makoto and Arikku come in soon to get their hair done as well." She smiled and nodded.
She then motioned for Miharu to go sit in a chair. We'll get started on your hair in a minute. In the meantime you can go sit in one of our comfortable chairs of doom." she said sarcastically and giggled. She then went to go help Yokome with the wax.

"Oh, thank you."
Miharu quickly bowed and went over to the offered chair.
" I have heard much about the torture that goes on here."
She said as she lowered herself down, eyeing the chair warily.

Nishiko rushed into the salon, breathing hard and messy from head to toe. She looked like she had fight with a monsoon.
"Gomen Nasai!" Koko heaved as she took off her zori. She had a slight limp to her walk as she headed into the back room to get to work and also to straighten herself out.

Akasha's gaze went from Miharu to Nishiko. She gasped and went over to her.
"My goodness! Are you okay? Your very messy." she said looking at her. "Oh my, and your limping. What happend? Please sit down a moment." she said worrying.

"Oh my, it has been a horrid morning!" She sighed heavily as she faced Akasha. "I'm all right though . . . dispite my ankle. I had a traffic accident with my cat . . . I limped away and my cat gave me a look as if I was in his way."
